Allegheny Mountain Institute

Allegheny Mountain Institute Growing Food. Building Community. ​AMI’s mission is to foster local community and ecological health
through foodways, nature connection, and education.

During a time of increasingly strained ecological, cultural, and social systems we envision a reweaving of relationships at a village level, nurturing pathways of health and connection between humans and with the earth. Ecologically aligned foodways are the pillar of this work, through local farm networks, seed cultivation and agroforestry. AMI strives to reach its mission through interrelated pat

hways:

Creating a space on Allegheny Mountain for deeper connection, cultivating an innovative small farm, while also utilizing alternative foodways such as agroforestry and tending the wild ecology of the land

Offering diverse classes in order to teach skills, enliven local wisdom and lore, foster strong relationships, and catalyze hope for positive culture change

Supporting other organizations with land-based and community-strengthening efforts

We spent the day kibitzing about the weather, mending fences, and planning our gardens. ☀️☀️☀️ We connected with old friends, made new ones, and shared a beautiful afternoon touring the cabins and gardens while enjoying freshly picked snacks grown just a stone’s throw from the lodge. 🥕🥒🍓🥬

Together, we planted seeds and gave thanks for the land we are fortunate to steward as we grow food for our community. 🌱 There’s something special about gathering around good food, meaningful work, and a shared vision for the future. Days like these remind us that community grows the same way a garden does—one seed, one helping hand, and one connection at a time. 💚

We hope to see you on the mountain this season for a workshop or volunteer day or at the to learn more and to celebrate another season of growing food and building community 🌱🍄☀️
